If you're cutting tiles with a diamond saw, you need to make sure that the
blade is running true and that you aren't cutting too fast. Also make sure
that there is plenty of water as this does both cushioning chores as well as
lubrication and cooling.
If you push the tile in too fast on any saw, the forces will get high enough
to where cracks happen.



All of these effects tend to be exaggerated when wrenches are used
instead of a saw, daimonds or no...




I went through the sales site to try and find what saw he had.

Turns out its a hand held curricular saw. I don't see how single tiles
could be cut with it. At least not safely.
